Gamers, meet Nancy, a new character for Tekken 6. She’s a huge robot that occupies nearly half the screen, and just for scale, she’s fighting Kuma.

Some people aren’t willing to drop $170 to get Rock Band Special Edition for their Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3. They just can’t justify spending that amount of money when they have no interest in one of the instruments bundled inside the package. Alternatively, some people have a tendency to break everything in sight and [...]
